Radio Philosophy
How I Think About Radio
Growth Without Breaking What Works
I am committed to discovering new avenues for growth in both sales and listenership. While I believe in not fixing what isn't broken, I am adept at identifying and resolving issues when they arise. I aim to lead teams to new heights, ensuring success is a collective achievement by giving credit where it's due.
Community is Radio's Competitive Advantage
Having an annual programming calendar is crucial. In an era where music is ubiquitous across various platforms, the unique value radio provides is community. It's about making listeners feel they are part of something significant. The future of radio lies in deepening community ties and forging new connections.
Authenticity is the Only Strategy
A compelling radio host connects with their audience by being an integral part of the community. On a music station, storytelling should be concise — like a tweet. On talk radio, it's more like a Facebook post where there's room to elaborate. Authenticity is key; we must be open about our own life stories.

"Surveillance"
Silver Mic Finalist[Child] One night my mommy and daddy went on a date. They got a babysitter to watch me. The babysitter was a family friend. She was like an angel to me in front of big people. But after my parents left, she stopped acting like an angel and started being mean. My parents didn't believe me until they got a surveillance camera from the Spy Shop in Mildale. When they got home that night, they watched the tape and saw the babysitter yelling at me all the time. Now we don't use that babysitter anymore.
[Announcer] Unfortunately, the times are changing and stories like this are more frequent and you begin to wonder if you can even trust a long time family friend. Put your mind and heart at ease with surveillance equipment from the Spy Shop. The Spy Shop promotes truth through technology; spy gadgets, bug detectors and cool stuff.

[Father] Ooh that's not good. Let me take it over to Bobby Sprocket, the bike shop in Milldale. They'll fix it right up for you. And it'll only be a short while because they're so close.
[SFX] Time Passing
[Boy] A short while later.
[Father] There, see sweetheart! All fixed. And look, Bobby Sprocket did a safety inspection and noticed you needed a couple new reflectors. Plus I had them put on a new kickstand, and replace the scuffed up pedals and grips.
[Girl] Cool, it looks almost new! Thanks daddy.

COLLEAGUEBiography
The Full Story
Throughout his radio career, Boz has worked under the on-air name Charlie Profit — a name that appears in trade press, reference letters, and the audio demos on this page. The nickname Boz followed him from early in his career and remains how colleagues know him today; he has also gone by Boz Profit in some markets. Charles Bosworth, Charlie Profit, Boz, Boz Profit — all the same person, all the same career.
Boz's journey in broadcasting has been as diverse as it has been extensive. Starting from the ground level, he has navigated through the ranks in radio stations of varying sizes and markets, engaging with the core aspects of the industry — programming, promotions, and production. His career has included humble beginnings, like taking out the trash, to the exhilarating experience of captivating audiences from behind the microphone and on stage.
Among his notable achievements, Boz was recognized as a Silver Mic finalist for his prowess in copywriting and production. His career also includes memorable moments like interviewing influential figures such as Connecticut Senator Joe Lieberman. He even took on the role of a guest and fill-in host on a nationally syndicated radio program, broadcast via shortwave, expanding his reach far beyond local airwaves.
In recent years, Boz served as the Program Director for WFNC 640 AM in Fayetteville, North Carolina, under Cumulus Media's banner, a testament to his leadership in the field. Prior to this, he spent nearly seven years as General Manager and Operations Manager for an AM station in Connecticut. Here, he was not just managing daily operations but also forging business relationships, negotiating with clients and syndication companies, and deeply involving himself in community events.
Leadership for Boz is about setting an example, nurturing talent, and maintaining an environment where everyone can thrive. He's known for his open-door policy, encouraging feedback, and ensuring that the station's facilities and broadcasting equipment are kept in prime condition, earning him accolades like the Connecticut Broadcasters Association's FCC Certificate of Compliance on two occasions.
Boz's innovative spirit shone when he devised an alpha-numeric cart numbering system to ensure commercials aired without errors during a time when automation was not yet prevalent, saving significant revenue for his station. Throughout his career, Boz has remained a team player, committed to elevating the standards of the broadcasting industry while never compromising his values and work ethic.
